I use a cable for my Uniden 436 to connect a external USB battery. Is there a cable for these older RS scanners? My 436 can scan a little more than 24 hours on a full charge on my USB battery. The Pro 26 is a great anolog scanner but eats the batteries. Thanks

The Amazon part looks similar to the one on Ebay. There may be an issue with the connector not fitting the radio power jack. The PRO-26 service manual says the power jack is Hosiden part number HEC2711-01-620. The jack is 3.75x1.3 while the Amazon/Ebay cable plug is 5.5x2.1. You would have to look for the right plug size and attach it to the cable while observing the correct polarity (center negative, barrel positive).

Edit: This adapter should work https://www.amazon.com/Connector-Ad...wicXNhIjoiMy40MCIsInFzcCI6IjMuMjUifQ==&sr=8-1

Thanks for the reply. Will look around to see if i can find the right connector already set up. If not, will order the adapter along with the cable. Thanks again.
